 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION & USE

CONNECTING THE CAMERA HEAD GAIN

The GAIN switch (3) increases the brightness of the video

picture. There are four levels of gain: OFF, LOW, MEDIUM,
and HIGH. Selecting a particular level establishes the GAIN
range. OFF is the setting you should normally use.

If the picture is too dark, first attempt to raise the light level as
described on page 6. If the picture is still too dark, adjust the
light source. As a last resort, GAIN can be used to illuminate
an area that does not have enough light. The picture will get
brighter but may also be more grainy. Text displayed on the
screen indicates current gain level.
